[philo]

an ideas what squad numbers might be this season

who will take the number 5?

who will take the numer 9?

what number will givet have?

And the rest of the team

[Gally]

9 will probably be the new striker, and personally I wouldn't mind number 5 being retired for a few years.

Seconded. Maybe if N'Zonzi stays with us and plays a bit give it to him in a year or two.

Marvelous idea!!!

[Tom]

5 shouldn't be retired in my opinion, give it N'Zonzi.

Tugay was a legend but no more than some others, to retire a number is a bit daft I think in honesty.

Agreed, it should be more of an honour to a player to be handed a 'legends' number, if you REALLY want it retired for a season give it to Steven Reid!!

[LeChuck]

Tugay had quite a few different numbers here, it seems a bit pointless retiring 5 when it wasn't really 'his' number. If he'd had the same number throughout his Rovers career it might have been worthwhile.

and through the rest of his career, think he played 17 at Rangers and 8 for Turkey and 20 for Gala.

[mrsjansen]

Lets not forget Big Col was also number 5, It wasnt retired when he left us.

[DeadlyDirk]

Should we retire number 15?

[RIML]

I'm just hoping Nelsen's doesn't change as I've had the new shirt printed with his name and number 6.

I'm assuming,

Number 2 - Jacobsen

Number 5 - Givet

Number 9 - New Striker

He's still with us?

[LeChuck]

I'm sure I read he'd just gone back to MK Dons from somewhere...Blackpool maybe.

[LeftWinger]

Johnson left us three years ago!

[Blue n White Rover]

Dunny isn't that fat

I gave up on squad numbers the day Shabani Nonda was given our number 9 shirt!

[dazmaz]

Dunny isn't that fat

LMAO

think the last shirt i got printed with a players name was Pedersen back when he was good

True, I remember Henning was given 5 and Tugay 4 under Souness, and Henning had to ask to swap. Tugay wasn't too bothered with what number he played with, so retiring no. 5 would be wrong.

[American]

Saw him come on as a late sub for Wednesday last season.

I think that's Jermaine Johnson, ex-Bolton lad. Although Jemal hasn't played for Blackpool...it seems to story I read was he has signed MK Dons contract after after it had expired. Not sure where I got the Blackpool bit from.

keep on topic boys closer to the new season for closer until we know and can get numbers on our shirts

[super_arran]

This might give an insight to the squad number for this season.

The new squad profile is up on the official site
